DEs MONIES, Ia, Feb. 14.-Last night
f. S. Todd. the heavy fruit commission
dealer on Walnut street. notified his family
that he would return to his business place
to meet a man on business. Not returning
home by 2 O'clock his sons went to the
store. Finding no light burning and en-
tering with the officer on that beat, they
found no trace of him in the counting
room. Passing through to the deep storage
room in the rear they noticed the 0dor of
gas ana mingled with it what seemed to be
ether fumes. Lighting the gas his watch
was found on box, the chain broken off
and some nickels and small silver OH the
floor near by. Beyond the ice box was his
hat, dented as if by list. Opening the ice
box the fumes of gas and ether were
very strong. Here lay the mer-
chant on his face and stomach.
and round his head was handkerchief
or napkin. Under mis- face was an ordi-
nary tin wash basin. He lay at full length
as IL he had arranged the order of his
death. Further search revealed key to
the front door. which lay under the little
slit of the door. At this writing in spite of
the seeming struggle furnished by the
broken watch, chain and scattered coins,
the indications point to suicide; but why a
man in Mr.. TOdds circumstances, not rich,
but at the head of prosperous business.
popular and blessed with a good wife and
loyal SONS, is one of those strange mysteries
which human ingenuity cannot solve. Mr.
Todd had been a good soldier in the
Union army and settled i'll Des Moines
about twelve years ago, where he has ever
since been in active business. He suffered
somewhat by a fire four or five years ago,
but not seriously, after which he dropped
the butter and egg business and embarked
in the fruit commission trade. which he de-
veloped with wonderful push and enter
prise. A coroners jury has been engaged
all day in investigating the case, but has
yet reached no conclusion. The deceased
held life insurance to the amount of $14, 600.

Her mind is now clear. She says that
Plew, who is in Jail at Warsaw, is the
murderer, and that he alone committed the
horrible crime. This story is being care
fully guarded for fear that it will ncite the
mob that has been waiting for proof of
Plew's guilt to summary action. The
county Jail at Walsaw is being strongly
guarded and the sheriff says he will shoot
the first man who enters to take Plew.

AGAINST THE ASSEMBLY.
District Assembly 40 Bitterly DE.
nOunced by New York Brewers


NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-The Brewers
union met to-day. The members were out
spoken against the leaders of District AS
sembly 40, and said they could not under
stand why the brewers, of all the trades,
had been ordered to help at the eleventh
hour, which 40 had vainly ordered them to
do. Mr.. Herbrandt. the secretary of the
ational Brewers union. expressed the be-
lief that the strike had been woefully mis-
managed from the start. and it was doomed
to disastrous collapse from its inception
The brewers would not strike because they
We're earning good wages, and
would not risk these advantages,
besides breaking their contract when
the result would only be infractions
of the common laws. RESOLUTIONS embody-
ing these opinions were adopted, and this
action was supplemented by an official de-
termination that the brewers organization
should withdraw its delegates from District
40. which is practically secession from that
body.

organization, at a meeting at the same hall
later in the day. took action identical with
that of the Brewers union. Delegations
from all the longshoremen's unions of New
York. Brooklyn and Jersey City had a
convention this afternoon. The men
were in conference four hours. and
they decided not to return to work
save at 40 cents per hour day work, and 60
cents per hour for over tine. One ship
owner was present and agreed to set 125
men at work at once at 40 and 60 cents
pending permanent adjustment of prices,
but with the understanding that if the gem
eral scale became 35 and 45, his work should
be then done by the men at the same rates.
This proposition was accepted. There was
developed strong undertone of feeling
against those who had led the men into the
